VILLARRUEL IN BOND PROCEEDIGS APPEA ON BEHALF OF RSPONDENT: Luther Snavely, Esquire APPLICATION: Change in custody status Date: MAR 1 7 2011 This is a appeal by the respondent fom an Immigation Judge , s December I 0, 20 I 0, bond order denying the respondenf s request fr a change in custody status. The appeal will be sustained, and te record will be remanded to the Immigation Judge. The Immigation Judge, in his Januar 20, 2011, bond memorandum, deterined tat the respondenfs ineligibility fr any fr ofreliefrendered him a fight risk. On appeal, the respondent contends that he has many ties to the United States ad does not pose a fight risk. The respondent entered the United States in 1980, when he was 2 yeas old. He now has been i the United States fr over 30 years. He is married to a United States citizen ad has two United States citizen children. He is the benefciary of an approved visa petition fled by his wif, although the Imigation Judge noted that te respondent would not be able to adjust his status in the United States due to his manner of entry. The respondent also has been employed wit the sae compay fr over 2 years. Under the circumstances of this case, where the respondent is not subject to mandatory detention ad has sigifcant and long-standing ties to the United States, we do not fnd tat the respondent is such a fight risk that no amount of bond could guarantee his appeaace at fture immigation hearings. Accordingly, the appeal will be sustained, and the record will be remanded fr te Immigation Judge to set an appropriate bond.1 ORER: The appeal is sustained. FUTHER ORDER: The record is remanded to the Immigation Judge fr fer proceedings consistent with the fregoing opinion and fr the enty of a new decision. # ( M FOR T.B 1 We note that the respondent indicated that the Departent of Homeland Security (DHS) sought a bond of$7,500.

On October 22, 20 I 0, the Department of Homeland Security (hereinafer Department) efected personal serice of a Notice to Appear (hereinafer NT A) on him. Therein, the Department assered a number of allegations regarding Respondent's alienage, citizenship, and manner of entr to the United States. The Department charged Respondent as an inadmissible alien pursuant to INA 212(a)(6)(A)(i), as he had entered the United States without admission or parole afer inspection by an authorized immigration ofcer.

Afer reviewing the documents submitted by Respondent, the Court concluded that Respondent was ineligible fr adjustment of status as the Form 1-130, Petition fr Alien Relative was fled on May 21, 20 I 0. Because Respondent entered the United States without admission or parole afer inspection by an authorized immigration ofcer, and his Form 1-130, Petition fr Alien Relative was fled afer April 30, 200 I, Respondent is ineligible to adjust status in the United States.

w w w . i r a c . n e t A092-722-540 VILLARUEL, Salvador Jr. Respondent is ineligible fr any frm of relief and has no reason to appear befre this Court fr any future hearings. In Matter of Guerra, 24 l&N Dec. 27 (BIA 2006), the Board of Immigration Appeals (hereinafer Board) made clear that,. under INA 236(a), the Court "has extremely broad discretion in deciding whether or.not to release an alien on bond." Matter of Guera at 39. Relying on Carlson v. Landon, 342 U.S. 524 (1952) (holding that denial of bail to an alien with be overuled only where it is shown to be "without a reasonable fundation"), the Board stated there is no limitation on the discretionar fctors that may be considered by the Court when ruling on custody and bond issues Afer examining Respondent's testimony and the documents contained in the record, the Court deterines, as a matter of discretion that Respondent poses a substantial fight risk based on his lack of available relief. In fct, the Court believes that Respondent has little to no incentive to appear fr any fture hearings or execution of a removal order. Accordingly, the fllowing order will be entered: Respondent's request fr bond redeterimination be DENIED. Dated: ( I i/ .. . . . . ' Immigration Judge I m m i g r a n t
